Remember when we traded four picks for Tyler Lockett?

I don't know if he has been more invisible in the offense or in the return game this year.

The kid was awesome until he got hurt. He used to not hesitate, now he does.
You hesitate as a returner, you are toast.

agreed, I don't know if it's just the hesitation or if it's that he's lost that burst as well cause even when he looks to have a slight crack he just can't get thru it. I hope another offseason can help him cause I love this kids try and heart but he was a mess out there all season save for one game.

We have a lot of problems.

Returner is WAY WAY low on the list.

The 3 and outs are a bigger issue.

The stupidity of our coaching staff is another.

The poor FA moves and spotty drafting is yet another.

The terrible FG kicker is another.


Each of those literally contributes to losing games.

Our returner taking it to the 20 or the 15 regularly, barely moves the needle.

I also can't remember seeing a single kickoff return blocked well all season.

He is clearly not 100%.

He also had TDs in back to back weeks coming into today...

I said this back in September and everyone laughed at me. He has not break away speed at all. Yes he has healed
but has not been the same since.

Is Everything
Remember when we traded back and got a bunch more picks in 2016 and all those guys got cut? There are 3guys from that draft on the team and Ifedi,is one of them. You can count Jefferesonif you want but he was cut and brought back. We drafted three TBs and nine are on the team. Not even two seasons in.

Special teams has been a joke. I'd hardly blame him.

He was special teams player of the week a couple games ago. He does seem like he hasn't been the same since his injury though. I think it would be hard to excel with this current offense. It's a team sport though, and when players in other positions are doing well, it effects other positions. Hoping next year we see some improvements.
